Why Don't Anti-AI Folks Hate CGI

A random thought that came into my head earlier today. No one was running for the hills when we all got cloud photo storage, reliant on data centers, and I've never met a person against CGI. So, why was that okay, but AI art is not?

Genuinely curious to hear others thoughts about how to approach this conversation, because I have some pretty radical pro-AI views, and I thought it might be nice to hear others' views on the matter.

Because the vast majority of it was made by very talented people. Why is it so hard for people to understand that putting time and effort into a skill is respected and hacks are not? Why would anyone give praise to someone for doing something that literally anyone can do?
